What is the longest you have ever slept for?

[Jhill]

I drove from SLC Utah to Austin Tx once (22 hours) and then drank a 6 pack and Bsed with my dad for a few hours. I then slept for 14 hours straight.

I know a lot of people have slept longer than this.

What is your story?

17.5 hours ... my doctor said the medicine would make me drowsy, he wasn't kidding:|

 

[Spoooon]

~16 hours or so. Was on some painkillers for my ankle. Felt like crap when I woke up.

After being sicker than I ever had in my life, with Gastroenteritis (sp?) and having vomiting and diahrhea for 48 hours and NOT sleeping due to constant...excreting, I passed out.

I slept for approximately 20 hours straight. I was so dehydrated that I didn't even have to urinate when I woke up. I lost about 8 pounds over four days. :disgust:

I did look pretty good afterwards though.

 

[conjur]

~17...18hrs.

 

[SarcasticDwarf]

22 hours, something similar to mono

 

[ObiDon]

A day and a half. :Q

I stayed up for a week straight for finals once. After that, I went to sleep Friday night and when I made my re-appearance Sunday afternoon all my friends were like WTF were you?!?

 

[Judgement]

17 hours straight would have to be my longest, although I did sleep 14 hours, wake up for 30mins and then go back to sleep for 8 more

well i dont know if it counts, but when i was really sick 3 years ago, i slept for more than a day, waking up only once to drink my medicines. it sucked. now i usually sleep 7 - 8 hours daily.

 

[Rkonster]

26 hours or so

37 hours. One Friday in college I drank way, way too much and finally crashed around 2:00AM. When I finally woke up I looked at the clock and it was 3:00PM. I wondered out of my bedroom and suggested to my roomates that we go to Arnies to eat cuz I was starving. They looked at me like I was nuts and then told me it was 3:00 Sunday and Arnie's was closed. I slept through an entire Saturday!

Math is hard.

Doh! As you can see, that drinking didn't do my math skills any good. Saturday @ 2:00AM to Sunday @ 3:00PM is 37 hours. I don't know where 26 came from.

[0roo0roo]

about 15. after 40 hours of being up. near the end i was half conscious really.

i've read that people recover fully from most any level of ssleep deprivation with about 15 hrs of sleep.

 

[Joemonkey]

about 25 hours or so, i was 5 years old and had broken my arm (greenstick fracture) and they had to put me to sleep to break whichever bone i didn't already have broken so it would set right. i guess they gave me too much, i woke up missing a day... parents were pretty scared

 

[Apathetic]

About 15 hours. I came home from work one day fealling really drained so I thought I'd take a quick nap. I woke up at 7 and though wow, I feel GREAT for only 3 hours of sleep. Then I realized the sun was coming in though the wrong window...
